Spanish World Cup hero Andres Iniesta is going to be a father.

The Barcelona midfielder made the announcement on his Facebook page Monday, saying ''it was a moment filled with happiness for all of us.'' Iniesta scored in Spain's 1-0 World Cup final victory over the Netherlands in July.

The 26-year-old Iniesta was a key member of Spain's 2008 European Championship-winning team. He also helped Barcelona to a record six major titles in one campaign, including the 2009 Champions League.
